Starfish Truesync Desktop 2.0b as used on the REX 5000 PDA uses a small keyspace for device keys and does not impose a delay when an incorrect key is entered, which allows attackers to more quickly guess the key via a brute force attack.

Buffer overflow in WindowMaker (aka wmaker) 0.64 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long window title.

GNU locate in findutils 4.1 on Slackware 7.1 and 8.0 allows local users to gain privileges via an old formatted filename database (locatedb) that contains an entry with an out-of-range offset, which causes locate to write to arbitrary process memory.
